hi thanks mushroom82, did you order it from amazon? If you don't mind me asking how much did it wor out with because i imagine customs will spot it coming in. He loves reading so this would be a perfect present for him!

found even more available in the UK now - wow didn't know there was so many! I like the sound of the Elonex from Waterstones - looks like it does the job perfect but i woun't have to remortgage the house! Might pop in tomorrow and have a word!
